Andy Murray propelled Great Britain into their first Davis Cup final for 37 years with a straight sets win over Australian number one Bernard Tomic in Glasgow on Sunday.

Murray produced a 7-5 6-3 6-2 triumph over the world number 23 to send Britain into an unassailable 3-1 lead and ensure they will face Belgium in the final on November 27-29 as they seek to win the tournament for the first time since 1936.

Afterwards he told a packed news conference that he had to focus on winning the match rather than making history as he played for the third time in three days.
